• Lastly, the Confirmation II Retreat has been postponed.  The retreat will be held on church grounds and the youth will arrive and depart from the facility each day at specific times. Detailed Retreat information and the final decision on the date will be emailed to parents, printed in the bulletin and available online.

 
Please keep our parishioners and all people around the world in your prayers during this outbreak. Both parish offices will remain open during regular hours to answer any questions you may have.
 
Yours in Christ,
